The eBay Sniper has an option to enable desktop notifications when a new listing matches you qualifications. We have made a few improvements to these notifications based on your requests.

Photo of the Listing

The photo is the quickest way to see what the seller has available and a great way to see if the case and instructions are included even if the title doesn't mention it.

The photo will appear in all notifications where the seller provides one. Stock images are not shown.

Safari does NOT support this feature.

Clicking Notification Focuses Screen on Sniper
The notifications are designed to let you keep the sniper open in the background while you do other work. Clicking the notification now brings you back to the browser tab that has the sniper in it.

Firefox does NOT support this feature.

Notifications Disappear After 7 Seconds
If you don't want to act on the notification, you can ignore it and it will disappear on its own after 7 seconds.

Chrome is Recommended Browser
Chrome is the best browser for using the full range of notification features. Internet Explorer does NOT support any notifications and Firefox and Safari don't fully support it.
